    So the RTi is now less expensive than Monitor?
    Is the new RTiA that much better than the current line (again, assuming that is what driving the price down everywhere)?

    It is just for a while for old stocks I guess. I believe new RTiA should sounds better since they have New Tweeter and Driver.

    At those prices, someone should buy a single RTi12, lay it horizontally, and use it as a center channel speaker set to LARGE. Wow.

    People can start using RTi12's as surrounds now, just hang them with bailing wire from the ceiling.:)

    IMO, a mistake most people make about their center channels is to get one that only goes down to 50 Hz, then believe it doesn't matter because the sub is gonna take care of the low end. WRONG!

    Put the bass in your face, and there's no better place than right in front of you. RTi12 center channel -- yeah baby! Somebody pleeaasseee do it. I wanna hear your impressions compared to a Csi5 or something similar.
